good morning, browsing the FTP catalog, I was looking at Hale wrenches, I am asking you about the necessity of the extendable handle.

Well, the extendable handle gives those tuning by ear a choice to make the wrench more or less sensitive to the movement of the ankle. There are those who prefer a short tip and a short wrench... and those who prefer the opposite. It also depends a bit on the hardness of the tuning pins. Furthermore, the tips have different star-shaped hole sizes and should be used according to the pin number found on the instrument. The important thing is to always use a star tip and never a square one, so as not to damage the pins and to ensure the correct grip.
